welderman - 31/1/09 at 07:43 AM

Friday the 13th of Feb.
Not even bonded the body to the car yet, working today and tomorrow, not alot of time to finnish it.

I had a week off just before my sva. and the car looked like my avatar. Still struggled to get it ready. I think you have a lot of work to do before 13th of feb lol Good Luck! Just dont panic and rush stuff you'll regret later. You can always change the date and cancel up to 3 days before

And only two weeks to SVA

Good job you own your company, it's going to be two weeks of Fury that's for sure.

Good luck Joe.

If I was in your position, I would be finding out about presenting a half finished car for test.

Ok the tester won't be happy, but with the point of progress you are at in the build, your going to have to rush things that are going to be a ballache to put right after the test. At least when you take the car for a retest a couple of months down the line, it will be with a car you are happy with!

I think you will find that if you present a car for SVA that is obviously not finished they will cancel the test, so no advantage gained.

It happened to somebody the day I had my SVA, their test was cancelled and I think they lost they full test fee as well.


Ben_Copeland - 31/1/09 at 01:37 PM

Yeah, will be cancelled, you lose your money and you dont get your 6 months grace on IVA

Get your finger out and fit that body! You've got 300 hour's!

If you need another pair of hands this week I'm available any evening. The week after I'll be thinking about you grafting away when I'm skiing.

Snowboarder would just be sat on his arse all week!

Joe, I'm going back to Meribel (was there for x-mass). Got a good deal. £890 a week, ski in/out, luxury chalet and I got it for £299! Where you going?

If your away next week then I'd phone Chadderton and ask to change the date. You still nedd to get your finger out though!

I went there 2 years ago. The single chair is an experience going over to Sestriere. Excelent pizzas in the Village cafe. Take care on the resort run; It gets a bit hairy in the afternoon.
